SEASONS GREETING 2025
Our Year in Review 2025
This year brought growth, learning, performances, karate belts, homeschool victories, and special time with the people we love. Life stayed busy and beautifully full, and we are closing the year grateful for the path we walked as a family.
We shared a beautiful trip to Catalina with neighborhood friends who have become family. We gathered for Thanksgiving with them too, which made the holiday feel warm and full. We also hosted dear friends from Connecticut over the summer, filling our home with conversation, memories, and the comfort of old friendship. There was also got to play in our old neighborhood in Playa Del Rey where multiple families got together for a fun filled weekend!
The laughter around the table, the sand in our shoes, the kids running freely, the rehearsals, the belts earned, the homeschool lessons, the clatter of community and home life together. These moments were the real heart of our year.
